Found myself sailing underneath
The fishes swimming around my feet
I splash the waves up onto the sand
And run the water through my hands
Watch the sun set down below
The horizon of the dark blue glow
Sitting on top of the mainland
The trees blow swiftly on my demand
My feet get stuck amongst the grains
My hands get wet it’s started to rain
I hide underneath a trees embrace
And wipe the water off my face
I watch the sunrise up above
But squint my eyes cause the glare is too much
The spitting stops as I get up
And return to my ocean
Oooooooooooo
I stand along the water line see my reflection start to shine
I drag my toe across the surface the icy water makes me nervous
But I dive in

Dancing On The Boardwalk

Diamond encrusted sand
Falls through my hands
And into yours
Peach flavoured on demand
Falls through my hands
And into yours
White curtains block the desert land
Cover my hands
Up with yours
Grease stains all on the pans
Use my hands
Don’t dirty yours
I watched as city lights
Took up the night, took up the night
I watched as beauty marks
Took over my life, over my life
I danced along the boardwalk
Once upon a time, once upon a time
I sung to the ocean waves
To give up the fight, give up the fight
Ribbons blow all through the fans
Right through my hands
And into yours
I forgot how to stand
Hold my hands
Up with yours
I watched as city lights
Took up the night, took up the night
I watched as beauty marks
Took over my life, over my life
I danced along the boardwalk
Once upon a time, once upon a time
I sung to the ocean waves
To give up the fight, give up the fight
And I believed in charity
Until it’s what I need
And I had faith in what I was bathed in
Until I crossed the sea
And I wise once upon a time
Now I’m on my knees
And I was dancing on the boardwalk
Feeling so happy
I watched as city lights
Took up the night, took up the night
I watched as beauty marks
Took over my life, over my life
I danced along the boardwalk
Once upon a time, once upon a time
I sung to the ocean waves
To give up the fight, give up the fight

Treat Yourself

I was caught in a moment
To the point where I had lost myself
I got stuck in the moment
Forgot I even knew myself
And I’ve been thinking maybe thinking just a bit too much
And maybe thinking overthinking things not enough
I got left in the moment
Now I don’t know myself
Yes I’m talking about you, talking about us too much
I’ve started thinking about me
Thinking about me
Thinking about how I treat myself
Treat myself
I got tired of emotions
Of feeling like I couldn’t catch a break
Sick of wishing or hoping
That you would try and change
And I’ve been angry maybe angry just a bit too much
But maybe angry only angry isn’t mad enough
And I’m still in the moment
The moment with you
Yes I’m talking about you, talking about us too much
I’ve started thinking about me
Thinking about me
Thinking about how I treat myself
Treat myself

River

I watched the moonlight sinking
What can I do?
My watch said half past five but
It’s a quarter to
I’m stuck waiting for the answer
Stuck waiting on you
The moonlight it’s still sinking
Tell me what to do
Take me down to the river where I first learnt to swim
Take me out of this room that I’ve locked myself in
Make me showers of diamonds and rings
Give me all of you and I might give you all of me
I dreamt of sun-kissed eyes and darker shades of blue
My clock said half past nine but
It’s ten past two
I’m still stuck on that answer
I’m still stuck with you
Where are those sun-kissed eyes oh,
What do I do?
Take me down to the river where I first learnt to swim
Take me out of this room that I’ve locked myself in
Make me showers of diamonds and rings
Give me all of you and I might give you all of me
Catch me I’m falling
Answer the phone when I’m calling
Stop running I’m walking
That’s a new look you’re sporting
Waste of a warning
Where did you go to this morning?
Take me down to the river where I first learnt to swim
Take me out of this room that I’ve locked myself in
Make me showers of diamonds and rings
Give me all of you and I might give you all of me

I said I wasn’t talking
Who said I wasn’t listening?
I said I wasn’t talking to you
Like I said, like I said before
I said we’re just indifferent
You said we’re not so different
I said I’m just indifferent to you
Like I said, like I said before
Before
Like I said like I said before
Stop following me around
I’m trying to create distance
Your footsteps sound so loud
Your breathing makes me shiver
Shiver
Stop following me around
I’m trying to lose you
How do you always find me?
How do you always find me?
Find me
How do you always find me?
I said I’m sick of waiting
You said I’m just impatient
I said I have been waiting for you
Since way back, way back before
Before
